Receive Trade-In

From the menu bar, click Modules > Inventory > Add/Change Inventory > Receive Trade-In or press Alt M I A T on the keyboard.

"Receive Trade-In" is used to receive into inventory any items taken in as a trade-in. The trade-in function must first be used on the Sales Invoice window in order to decrease the amount of the total sale by the value of the item(s) traded-in. Refer to "Taking a Trade-In" for more information.

Upon selecting the customer who brought the item in as a trade-in, the 'Select Trade-In' list box will open. This list box contains all items the customer has brought in as trade-ins that have been applied to a sales invoice but have not yet been received into inventory. Select the item you are currently receiving into inventory.

The next window that opens is the 'Select Sku' box which contains a listing of serialized SKUs. In order for the item to be received into inventory, the serialized sku must exist at the location the item was received at.  If you wish to use a reusable SKU, you have the ability to view only reusable SKUs by selecting that option on the bottom of the 'Select Sku' box.  If a reusable SKU is going to be used, you may need to edit it first to make certain the correct category, sub category and manufacturer are assigned to the SKU, as applicable to the item being received.  To edit the SKU, highlight the SKU to select it and click the Edit button. 

Note: If the serialized SKUis not found and you do not have reusable SKUs created or available, you must create the serialized SKU record before proceeding. You may do this by clicking the Add button which appears on the bottom of the 'Select Sku' box.  Refer to "Receive Inventory" for information on creating an inventory record.

Once the applicable serialized SKU has been selected, the Trade-In window similar to the one pictured below opens.
